On Tuesday, news broke that the Trump administration’s Department of Justice is quietly pushing a far-reaching rule to reformulate disparate impact liability—a move that will have monumental consequences for U.S. civil rights law. Discrimination does not have to be intentional and explicit to be unlawful. By looking to the disproportionate burden of a policy, practice, or regulation, disparate impact consideration allows plaintiffs to smoke out real but concealed discrimination. It also gives plaintiffs a vital tool to challenge unconscious bias and structural discrimination....

The match began at a frenetic tempo with both sides looking to put the other under strife. However, the visitors settled into their rhythm earlier, meaning that they created a host of opportunities in the first half. Yet, despite weaving pretty patterns, they were unable to stitch together an end product, thereby leading to a goal-less opening period. After the restart, Bengaluru looked a better outfit and they lent weight to that notion when Sunil Chhetri headed home from a corner, just before the hour mark....

Over the past few weeks, Trump has played into theories that the Democratic establishment has been attempting to undermine Sanders and “take” the nomination from the Vermont senator. He has repeatedly tweeted about the Democratic primaries, posting about Sanders again on Saturday evening. “Democrats are working hard to destroy the name and reputation of Crazy Bernie Sanders, and take the nomination away from him,” the president wrote.
